Oh, hi there!

We are a small, traditional values family living on 85 acres in an underground passive solar house in the beautiful rolling hills of North Carolina. Our lifestyle is one of living off the land and utilizing "lost skills" that were once commonplace. We grow a good portion of our own food, forage for wild edibles, hunt, raise livestock and preserve the things we harvest. We cook on an old fashioned kitchen woodstove and have foregone the trend of solar power and generators because of the dependence on batteries and fuel that must be obtained commercially. Instead we have chosen to position ourselves to live without electricity if necessary. By simplifying, we have carved out a lifestyle that enables us to be self-sufficient, live off the land, and enjoy the solitude that comes with being somewhat "out-of sync" with the rest of the world.
